I know. I know. It's been damn near 2 years since I've updated anything, but I am back now with more time on my hands to finish these stories. Everything will be updated as I am working on chapters for each story.
I do not own Naruto or any of its characters.
It's been a few days since Natsumi defeated pain and Naruto defeated Itachi. Word got around about their actions against the akatsuki and it put smaller villages on edge as well as some of the larger villages. Iwa personally sent a message threatening Konoha that if Natsumi or Naruto did anything to harm their village that it would result in extreme consequences. Natsumi wanted to go fight the Tsuchikage, but Naruto just put her to sleep with a sharingan genjutsu because she was giving him a nasty headache with her constant yelling. The village was still on lockdown, but they were a bit relaxed on shinobi returning from a mission.
After the entire fight with Nagato, Natsumi finally got the respect in the village that she rightfully deserved and earned. She was the big name in the village and kids came up to her asking for an autograph which she happily gave them. Naruto, who was a big name in the village also had people who admired him, but they did so from a distance since most people felt like only a select few people could walk up to him and talk to him. He had a huge group of fangirls, but none of them dared to treat him how Sasuke was treated by his since it was a known fact that he was dating Temari and nobody wanted to explain why they were all up touching her boyfriend. Naruto and Natsumi were currently on their way to iron country for the Kage summit with Tsunade, but Naruto was distracted.
"Kaguya Otsutsuki. Even after killing your lover and having children, you remained on earth. What was the purpose of you staying here instead of going back to your home?" Naruto thought
"Hey! Fishcake!" Natsumi said
"Huh?" Naruto asked
"Sheesh. We've been calling your name for hours. What's going on in that head of yours?" Natsumi asked
"Nothing." Naruto said
"It doesn't seem that way. You've been like that ever since we left Konoha." Tsunade said
"I'm fine. Really. You don't have to worry about anything." Naruto said
"If you say so. Now, I want to go over a few rules for this meeting and this particularly goes for you, Natsumi." Tsunade said
"Why me?" Natsumi asked
"Because you're a hot head and you still have a loose temper. This meeting will be intense and filled with a lot of insults being thrown. Keep your composure and don't attack or do anything stupid unless I signal you to do so. Naruto, you too have a tendency to mouth off at the wrong time, but I'm sure you know how to handle yourself in a meeting and I trust you'll be on your best behavior. No doubt that the Raikage and Tsuchikage already know your heritage so don't be surprised if they start talking about your family. Just let me handle everything and this will end smoothly." Tsunade said
"Fine." Natsumi said
"Your fingers are crossed." Naruto said and Natsumi gasped
"How'd you know?!" Natsumi asked and uncrossed her fingers
"Natsumi, this is serious. If you can't control yourself in this kind of meeting then you'll just hurt your chances of becoming hokage and I know you don't want that." Tsunade said
"I got it. I got it." Natsumi said
"I want both of you to keep your sensing abilities on high alert for Danzo or anything suspicious. All five Kage will be present in one place so this gives him the perfect time to try and kill either one of us. If he attacks, Naruto will be the one to handle him." Tsunade said
"Why can't I fight him?" Natsumi asked
"Because Danzo has a sharingan eye and we can't take the risk of him trying to control you for the nine tails. He also possesses Hashirama Senju dna so he has the potential to utilize wood style ninjutsu as well." Naruto said
"I can use wood style ninjutsu as well." Natsumi said
"Yes, but I'm pretty sure he knows techniques to restrain you. I'll take Danzo on and you can take out the root anbu." Naruto said
"Fine. Hey, look at that." Natsumi said and pointed to the ground
"Is that an avalanche?" Tsunade asked, as she saw snow falling at a rapid pace and Naruto activated his sharingan
"No. That's Gaara, Kankuro and Temari. Comet, go down to them." Naruto said
"Sure thing." Comet said, as he flew next to them
"Hey, guys. Want a lift?" Natsumi asked
"Sure." Temari said and they hopped on Comet
"Temari, why didn't you summon Skyress to take you to iron country?" Naruto asked
"She was put in charge of watching the new hatchlings apparently and we had to walk." Temari said
"Gaara, I take it that you received the same invitation from the Raikage." Tsunade said
"Yes. Do you know what it's about?" Gaara asked
"I have a theory. His brother was supposedly captured and he's angry now." Naruto said
"You think he's looking for an outlet to make himself look like he's not responsible for this?" Kankuro asked
"It does make sense. The Raikage is a prideful man and his ego won't allow him to accept that he was wrong or had any kind of fault in this." Tsunade said
"While the Raikage will be pointing the blame, I'm sure he will make some interesting points." Temari said
"What do you mean?" Natsumi asked
"So far out of all the members of the akatsuki, none of them are from the land of lightning. Konoha, Suna, Kiri and Iwa all have members from their ranks in the akatsuki or had members in the akatsuki since some of them are dead. That's his only point he can really make though." Temari said
"Let me and Gaara handle that. Right now our only ally is the mizukage. They might try to use that against us, but we'll be fine." Tsunade said
"It's funny how the Raikage of all people decided to call this summit. This is something you'd call for, lady Tsunade." Kankuro said
"Well, his brother has gone missing so it's clear why he's finally getting involved." Tsunade said
"Hey, Naruto." Temari whispered
"What's up?" Naruto asked
"Have you told Tsunade about what we found?" Temari whispered
"No." Naruto admitted
Temari sighed and wrapped her arms around him to pull him closer, ignoring the teasing look Natsumi was giving her at the moment.
"You have to tell her. This stuff is huge and could persuade the other Kages to help us." Temari whispered
"We also run the risk of not getting any help. I'll tell her after the summit is over with, but until then we will keep this to ourselves." Naruto said
"What about Gaara?" Temari asked
"Same goes for him." Naruto said
"What are you two lovebirds whispering about?" Natsumi asked
"About how you still can't beat Naruto in a fight." Temari teased and Natsumi's eye started to twitch
"I can beat him." Natsumi growled
"Uh-oh. Looks like the little fox is mad." Temari said
"That's it! Me and you! Right here! Right now! Let's go!" Natsumi said and stood up
"You might want to sit down. If you fall off, Comet isn't responsible for you so I doubt he'll try to catch you." Naruto warned
"Comet you'll catch me right?" Natsumi asked
"Are you a dragon summoner?" Comet asked
"No." Natsumi mumbled
"There's your answer." Comet replied
"That's not fair!" Natsumi said and smacked Comet on his back
"Hey!" Comet said
"Relax, Comet." Naruto said and Comet blew smoke out his nose
"Stupid redheads. That's why I like Temari better." Comet mumbled
"How big are you?" Tsunade asked
"I'm about 300 meters long. I'll probably grow another 100 meters before I reach full growth." Comet said
"You're not finished growing?!" Kankuro asked
"No. I'm bigger than the boss of the dragons and nearly the size of the elder dragon Ra." Comet said
"We're here." Naruto said, as he was looking at the ground beneath them and Comet landed on the ground
"Alright. Thank you for flying air Comet. If you need me to pick you up, don't need me." Comet told them and went up in smoke
The two kages and their bodyguards made their way to the meeting point. Tsunade had her official hat on and kept taking glances at Natsumi to make sure she was behaving. After a few minutes of walking, they finally arrived at the building where the meeting would be held. Each of the five kages sat around a table while their guards were up top and lord Mifune walked in with his own samurai following him. Natsumi looked at Naruto who had his sharingan activated and his eyes were rapidly moving around. She closed her eyes and began gathering nature chakra to enter sage mode. They were well aware of what was going on in the meetings, but they were checking their surroundings and Natsumi felt a large group of chakra signatures coming towards Iron country.
"Naruto." Natsumi whispered
"I know." Naruto replied
"What do we do?" Natsumi asked
"We wait. I'll take Danzo and you can help the five kages with his anbu. Feels like he has a lot of them with him." Naruto said
"I feel over two hundred chakra signatures surrounding a large one that feels tainted." Natsumi said
"Tainted? How?" Naruto asked
"His chakra feels like yours and moms chakra, but not quite. Almost as if it wasn't originally in his body." Natsumi asked
"Well, I do know he has a sharingan in his eye socket, but I'm not too sure about why his chakra feels like Tsunade's." Naruto said
"ENOUGH OF THIS NONSENSE."
This yell came from the fourth Raikage, A who was pissed off at how the current meeting was going on and punched a hole in the desk. This led to all of the bodyguards from each Kage to jump into action except for Natsumi and Naruto who didn't move due to Tsunade signaling them not to do anything. Mifune just looked around before letting out a deep sigh.
"This summit is a place of discourse, so please refrain from any more behavior that lacks civility." Mifune said
"Kankuro, Temari. Stand down." Gaara orders and his siblings nod
"Ao, Chojuro. It's alright." Mei calmly said
"Yes ma'am." Ao responded
The Tsuchikage just nodded his head at his guards while A pulled his arm out of the desk and begrudgingly took a seat.
"Now, let's continue our discussion." Mifune said
"The hidden leaf, the stone, the sand and the midst. The akatsuki membership is composed of rogue shinobi from your villages. That's not all either. From our investigations, we know that among you and the earlier Kage there are those who have even used the akatsuki." A said
"The Kage used them?" Gaara asked
"That's why I don't trust any of you. I have no interest in any discourse, but the reason I summoned you all here is to ultimately question your loyalties!" A exclaimed
"What do you mean that they used the akatsuki?" Gaara questioned
"You were the son of the Kazekage and you don't know anything? Just ask your village elders back home. You of the sand have previously used the Akatsuki in battle." A responded
"Currently, all five great nations are equally stable. They are moving from military expansion to disarmament. As strain as relations are between the nations and the threat of war diminishes, hidden villages considered military power by their nations merely become costly hindrances and yet at the same time, completely eliminating such villages has shown risks as well. However, if war suddenly breaks out, relying on ninja with no battle experience would be problematic. You'd lose the battle without question." Ōnoki explained
"The Kage would realize that one way to avoid that risk is to use mercenary soldiers. Namely soldiers from the akatsuki." Gaara added
"It takes effort and money to cultivate accomplished ninja from within one's own hidden village. The akatsuki makes war its livelihood and is made up of experienced professionals. Furthermore. They can be hired quite cheaply. Best of all, their soldiers have always delivered superior results." Ōnoki said
"Don't be pompous Tsuchikage. The sand once used the akatsuki to destroy the hidden leaf. I'm talking about Orochimaru who had already left the akatsuki by then, but as a result, your father, the fourth Kazekage and the third hokage, Hiruzen perished. It's also hard to dismiss the thought that this was part of an even larger plan. The most suspicious of them all is the hidden mist. The mist never engages in diplomacy and it's rumored that the akatsuki started there." A said
"You're wrong." Tsunade said
"Excuse me?" A asked
"The akatsuki didn't start in the hidden mist village." Tsunade said
"How would you know that?" A asked
"The leader of the akatsuki was an old student of the late Jiraiya who took in three orphans during the second shinobi war. The akatsuki started in the hidden rain village and somehow managed to enter the hidden mist village." Tsunade said
"Why should I take your word? It's no secret that Konoha helped the mist end their bloody civil war." A said
"You should take my word considering the fact that three of my shinobi are responsible for the deaths of quite a few members of the akatsuki. In fact, two of them are my personal guards." Tsunade said
She signaled for them making Naruto and Natsumi appear behind Tsunade.
"I'd like to introduce you all to Naruto Uchiha-Namikaze and Natsumi Uzumaki-Namikaze. Naruto himself has killed Itachi Ichiha, Deidara and Orochimaru. Natsumi has killed Sasori of the red sand, Kakuzu and the leader of the Akatsuki, Pain. In fact, despite me sending out warnings to all villages, only Suna and the hidden Mist village took me seriously. We were able to prevent Gaara from losing his tailed beast." Tsunade said
"Since it's come to this, I'll be honest. We suspect that somebody behind the scenes was secretly manipulating Yagura, the man who was the mizukage before I took over. There's a possibility that that someone is the akatsuki. Furthermore, it was the right move to go to Konoha for help since it was discovered by Naruto that they were secretly being supplied by Danzo Shimura of the hidden leaf village." Mei admitted
"Sending spies into the mist is grounds for war!" A said
"Oh sit down. Lady Tsunade didn't even know about that until Naruto sent word back to Tsunade." Natsumi said
"Thank you, Natsumi. Danzo has been operating in the shadows ever since the first reign of the third hokage and we could never prove it due to a lack of evidence. Whenever his men are killed, they burst into flames destroying all traces of them ever being there. However, Danzo did not expect Konoha to aid the hidden mist in ending their civil war." Tsunade said
"Yet another rogue shinobi from Konoha." A said
"Yes. Which brings me to my next point. Danzo may try to ambush us here at the summit." Tsunade said
"What?!" A asked
"You heard me and as a token of good faith, I'd appreciate it if you all would help me in ending his life and his army of anbu soldiers at his disposal." Tsunade said
"Why should we help the hidden leaf?" A asked
"Consider it payback for trying to kidnap Hinata Hyuga thirteen years ago." Tsunade said
Kankuro, Temari. When they arrive, we will aid Konoha in battle." Gaara said
"Ao, Chojuro. We're helping as well." Mei added
Before anything else could be said, Naruto unsealed his sword and blocked an attack aimed at Tsunade. The root anbu that attacked Tsunade had his head removed from his shoulders and went up in flames.
"Naruto, your orders are simple. Find Danzo and end his life." Tsunade said
"I'm on it." Naruto replied and vanished
"Natsumi, how many are there?" Tsunade asked
"Over two hundred. They're surrounding the village." Natsumi answered
"Lord Mifune, I hate that it has come to this, but do you have anywhere the civilians can hide while we fight?" Tsunade asked
"Of course." Mifune said
"Natsumi, create as many clones as you can and have them evacuate the civilians. I want the real you next to me during the fight." Tsunade said
"You got it." Natsumi replied and left
Samurai bridge
After leaving the five Kage summit, Naruto went searching for the largest chakra signature amongst the incoming chakra signatures and waited for it to arrive. He sat atop the samurai bridge until he felt three chakra signatures in front of him including the strongest one of them all.
"So, you're here, Naruto Uchiha. This is just perfect." Danzo said
Danzo began unwrapping his injured arm revealing a pale skin arm made up of Hashirama DNA and implanted sharingan on his arm.
"Listen, Naruto. I'm going to take your sharingan and add them to my collection." Danzo said
"Taking eyes from the Uchiha massacre. I honestly should thank Karin for raiding Orochimaru's base with me. She knew exactly where to go for some important files." Naruto said
"Fū, Torune. Deal with him." Danzo ordered
Before they could even move, both of their heads were removed from their shoulders and Danzo jumped back, narrowing his visible eye since he didn't see Naruto move from his spot.
"That takes care of those two." Naruto said
Danzo went through a few hand signs before taking off at what he assumed were blinding speeds and punched Naruto only to get met by the rib cage of his Susanoo. Before Danzo could jump back, he was grabbed by the hand of the Susanoo.
"I told you a decade ago that you'd regret sending your anbu guards after me and I intend to keep my promise." Naruto said
Muscles began to grow on the body of his Susanoo and not before long, Danzo was squeezed to a pulp, but his body reappeared behind Naruto who wasn't surprised in the slightest.
"Next, let's battle with our eyes." Danzo said
Danzo quickly made a kunai appear in his hand and tried to stab Naruto through his Susanoo. Of course it didn't work since the kunai broke and Danzo didn't show any emotion.
"Just as I thought. The Susanoo. That splendid armor to protect yourself with." Danzo said
He was smashed into the ground, but once again he reappeared on top of the samurai bridge completely unharmed.
"The power in its attack is impressive as well." Danzo said
Amaterasu
Danzo suddenly burst into black flames due to Naruto's sharingan ability and of course Danzo reappeared unharmed. Danzo went through hand signs and used the wind style: vacuum bullet. Naruto dodged every single one of them before countering with the fireball jutsu and Danzo was forced to jump out of the way.
"Unrivaled speed, excellent reflexes and three Mangekyou abilities in rapid fashion. You definitely are the son of Konoha's yellow flash and Sayuri Uchiha." Danzo said
He then dropped down to a knee when he felt the wind get knocked out of him courtesy from Naruto's fist being embedded into his stomach.
"Yet you still try to fight me knowing you're outmatched." Naruto said
He quickly jumped away when Danzo used the wind style: vacuum blast in an attempt to catch him off guard, but like he said, Naruto's speed was unrivaled. It was almost like he was predicting his moves before he even made them. Naruto then broke apart into tiny little dragons that began flying around until Danzo saw Sayuri standing behind him.
"Sayuri?" He questioned
Danzo quickly realized he was under a genjutsu and broke it before jumping away to create some distance. He was then met with Naruto's armored version of his Susanoo aiming right at him before firing off an attack. Not being able to weave jutsu signs in time, Danzo used his arm with Hashirama's DNA to use wood style in order to avoid being killed again.
"The cells of Hashirama Senju. No wonder your body is able to handle so many sharingan eyes. Your chakra took a deep plunge to use this jutsu. You should have let me kill you and used the izanagi to revive yourself." Naruto said and Danzo's eye widened
"You knew." Danzo said
"I knew the moment you reappeared the first time. Did you honestly think you could beat an Uchiha using his own clan techniques? Your ego is showing. Even with all of those sharingan eyes and Shisui's in your eye socket, you'll never be able to use it to its full capacity. The strain on your body right now is still effective despite you countering it with Hashirama Senju's DNA. You're at my mercy now." Naruto said
He fired off another shot from his Susanoo and Danzo was hit, but he reappeared using the Izanagi. Danzo ran at Naruto again and was stabbed again only to reappear once more. Naruto just sighed as it was getting a bit annoying.
"Fighting that Susanoo won't be easy either. His arrow attack is hard to dodge and I can't do izanagi yet. I have to finish things this minute." Danzo thought
He wiped some blood onto his finger and used the summoning jutsu to bring out his Baku which was a gigantic elephantine chimera which towers over Naruto's armored Susanoo. Granted, Naruto was only using the upper body of his Susanoo right now, but the size of Danzo's summons was impressive. The Baku began inhaling everything in its path rendering the Susanoo immobile giving Danzo an opening to attack from behind or so he thought. Naruto used the great dragon flame jutsu to stop the Baku and then used his Susanoo to punch Danzo into a pillar, forcing him to use the izanagi again.
"Four minutes." Naruto said
"What was that?" Danzo asked
"That's how long your jutsu lasts. It makes your attacks successful while rendering all of mine ineffective. That means you have sixteen minutes left, but given the way this fight is going, you're not lasting 16 minutes." Naruto said
Naruto dropped the Susanoo and disappeared from sight. Danzo was on edge since he wasn't used to Naruto's moves. Typically when a ninja disappears, they would want to hide their chakra, but Naruto's chakra was felt all over the place so he could attack from any angle he wanted to. He was hiding in plain sight and Dazno was stabbed through the back with Naruto's sword only to reappear with the izanagi.
"Had I known he would be this strong, I would have taken him at birth." Danzo thought
"You must be getting desperate, Danzo." Naruto's voice echoed around the entire bridge area
"Desperate you say? How?" Danzo asked
He wanted to keep Naruto talking so he could find his exact location.
"Attacking the five Kage summit. A man as smart as yourself should have known the odds weren't in your favor. Five kages, two Kage level shinobi and lord Mifune as well. Bringing hundreds of root anbu here was a bad call. Natsumi and I were able to sense you all coming miles away." Naruto told him
"Sometimes you must act brash to get desired results." Danzo replied
"How's that going for you? Since you weren't able to make sure the akatsuki destroyed Konoha, your plans became rushed. You've ruined your body to control the nine tails when in fact you didn't have to do that. Instead of enticing the village to harm Natsumi as a child, you could have simply went up to her as an old man trying to help and slowly sank your claws into her. The third hokage wouldn't have noticed and possibly could have brushed it off as her being fed up with the hideous treatment of the villagers." Naruto said and Danzo narrowed his eye
"Why are you telling me this?" Danzo questioned
"I'm telling you this because eventually you'll run out of time using the izanagi and when you take your final breath, I want you to realize how much of a failure you really are. Growing up, Hiruzen has always had such high praise for your efforts during the first shinobi war. I know the story about how he became hokage and not much has changed between then and now. Hiruzen was willing to sacrifice himself for the village during the first shinobi war in order for lord second to walk away the victor and that's the kind of person who deserves to be hokage. Not somebody who hesitates when things get rough. A moment's hesitation can lead to one's death and become the turning point in an important battle." Naruto said
"Then why isn't Tsunade here to fight me?" Danzo asked
"That's because you've been at the top of my shit list since the moment my mother died. Poisoning her after she gave birth to me is something that solidified me killing you. Lady Tsunade is with everyone else as we speak, fighting off and potentially killing all of your root anbu. Four Kages, 9 bodyguards in which one of them is a Kage level shinobi, Lord Mifune and an entire army of samurai. This is the end of your pathetic life." Naruto said
Naruto appeared behind Danzo and shocked him with the electromagnetic murder before kicking him away. Three kunai went flying at Danzo and stabbed him in three vital spots, but Dazno once again used the izanagi. Naruto used his lightning manipulation to create a sword of pure lightning chakra as Danzo coated a chakra blade in wind chakra. They ran at one another with the intention of finishing the fight and stabbed one another through the chest.
"You were too hasty. My last eye is still open. You should have been on my side. You could have seen all the good it would have done for you. I win, Naruto. You may think that you saw through my izanagi, but…." Danzo said
"What?! What is this?! Why won't the izanagi activate?" Danzo thought
"You're finished." Naruto said
He faded out of sight and Danzo saw the very same lightning sword sticking through his chest from behind. Naruto subtlety placed him under a genjutsu to make him think he still had one more izanagi left.
"You insolent boy." Danzo said
"Did you really think you could stand a chance against me? I have been using the sharingan since I was 5 years old and I've worked till exhaustion took over on perfecting it. Meanwhile, you only stole your sharingan eye and implanted them into your body." Naruto said
Danzo's body started to break down due to his declining health and his Hashirama Senju arm began to spread out into a gigantic tree forcing Danzo to break off to avoid being taken over. Danzo stood up and unwrapped his right eye revealing one last Sharingan that Naruto already knew about.
"No. This is where we battle with our eyes." Danzo said
"Even with that eye, you still couldn't detect that something was wrong. You must've used up its visual prowess sometime and the time limit hasn't gone up yet." Naruto said
"What does that mean?" Danzo asked and Naruto held up his palm revealing a sharingan eye
"I believe the person this belongs to is already dead." Naruto told him and burned the eye with his amaterasu
"I-Impossible." Danzo said
"Not impossible. Let me tell you a little secret that not many people know. My lineage comes directly from Madara Uchiha himself. He had a child in secret and his direct bloodline continued all the way down to myself. I have the most powerful sharingan in Uchiha history, you lost this battle the moment I was born." Naruto said
Danzo tried to run away which made Naruto sigh as he began walking after him. He followed Danzo's bloody footsteps slowly catching up to him Danzo eventually collapsed to the ground as his wounds became too much for him to handle.
"You're going to die. However, I'll leave you with some hope. The hidden leaf village will not fall. The current generation of shinobi will carry on the will of fire and defend the village. You were so stuck into your own twisted world of ruling the village that you turned it into a personal fight with lord third. I'll take care of the leaf along with Natsumi." Naruto said
Danzo didn't say anything. He just snatched open the top part of his torn robe and activated a reverse tetragram seal on his body. Not too long after, the seal exploded and Danzo was no more.
Meeting hall
Scorch marks, busted walls and 9 of the best shinobi alive were gathered back inside of the meeting hall. There weren't any casualties on their end, but the Raikage lost an arm from a lucky move by the extremely dangerous root anbu if you were to ask him. He was too prideful to admit that a few root anbu managed to get one over on him.
"Well, that's over with." Natsumi said
"How did Danzo manage to gather so many shinobi to his side?" Ōnoki asked
"For years Danzo has been in connection with Orochimaru behind Konoha's back. For the last 4 decades or so, Danzo has been kidnapping children from orphanages all over the nations and turning them into his own mindless army." Tsunade said
"Why didn't lord third do something about it?" Mei asked
"He couldn't. You've all seen what happens to the bodies of his anbu. They go up in flames and he's very good at not leaving a paper trail. I just recently discovered this when Naruto and Natsumi went to kill Orochimaru." Tsunade said
"Where is he anyway?" Gaara asked
"He's on his way." Natsumi told him
"Is Danzo with him?" Tsunade asked
"No. It's just him. I don't even feel Danzo's chakra anymore." Natsumi said
"Good." Tsunade said
"Seems as if I missed the party." ? said
"Who's there?!" A demanded
A swirling vortex was shown and out came Tobi who Naruto has already fought.
"My name is Madara Uchiha. I am here to explain something to you all and once you understand it, I'll ask you a question." Tobi said
"What is it?" A asked
"It's about my plan. Project TsuKi no me." Tobi said
"I've heard of that before, but from where." Temari thought
A wasn't having any of that and went to attack Tobi, but he just went straight through him.
"What?" A said to himself
"Just calm down, Raikage. Let's hear him out and take it from there." Ōnoki said
"Are all of you finally prepared to listen?" Tobi asked
"Just get on with it." Tsunade said
"It seems I miscalculated. I was hoping Danzo would be able to weaken some of the five Kage and I could take some of you hostage, but I guess that was too much to ask of him." Tobi said
"Take us hostage? What for?" Mei asked
"To ensure that project TsuKi No Me was implemented smoothly." Tobi responded
"I'm truly surprised that Madara Uchiha is still alive, but I'm confused. Why do you of all people need such roundabout tactics? With all your power, you should be able to bring any plan to fruition easily." Ōnoki said
"My injuries from my battle with the first hokage Hashirama were too severe. I currently have little power. I'm a shell of my former self." Tobi explained
"Oh I get it. This plan of yours is to restore your power." C, the bodyguard of A said
"Hm. I suppose you could say that, but there's so much more to it." Tobi said
"What exactly is this project TsuKi No Me?" Mifune questioned
"It'll be a long story, so I'll need to sit down." Tobi said and actually took a seat
"Stop messing around! What kind of plan is it?!" Kankuro asked
"All shall become one with me. In a possession form that unites all. There's an ancient stone tablet passed down within the Uchiha clan. It's in a room below the leaf. Upon it are written secrets engraved by the sage of six paths himself, but they cannot be read without visual powers. With the sharingan, Mangekyo sharingan and rinnegan respectively, more and more knowledge is progressively revealed." Tobi said
"Your story is becoming more and more unbelievable. The sage of the six paths is a myth." Ōnoki said
"It is the truth. He did indeed exist and he left that stone tablet behind." Tobi said
"Stop changing subjects! What does this sage of the six paths have to do with your plan anyway?" A asked
"Do any of you know why he became a legendary figure? One that is revered as a god amongst shinobi. This is where the link between that man and my purposes lies." Tobi said
"Madara Uchiha. You possess the Mangekyo sharingan and one of your fellow akatsuki members possessed the rinnegan. Do you know all of the tablet's secrets then?" Mei asked
"Yes. Let's hear them." Ōnoki said
"The sage once saved the world from a certain monster." Tobi said
"What monster?" Gaara asked
"Gaara, you currently hold one small piece of that monster sealed away within you. It was the aggregate of all of the tailed beasts. A creature that possessed almost infinite chakra. The ten tails!" Tobi said
"I thought there were only nine tailed beasts!" Temari said
"I just told you. It was the aggregate of all of the tailed beasts. The ten tails chakra was simply divided up to create the nine tailed beasts that we know today by the sage of the six paths hand." Tobi said
"I really don't like where this is going. That's why the akatsuki were out collecting all of the tailed beasts." Kankuro said
"Where's Naruto at? This could all be useful to him." Temari thought
"The sage of the six paths developed a certain ninjutsu in order to protect the world from the ten tails, that ninjutsu is still being secretly passed down. It is the sealing jutsu process for jinchuriki. Yes, the sage was the ten tails jinchuriki. He sealed the ten tails within himself to suppress the monster. The sage who saved humanity from being terrorized by the beast was revered as a savior and as a god, but the sage feared that upon his death, the seal would come undone and the ten tails immense chakra would re-emerge. So in his final moments, using the last of his strength to partition the ten tails chakra into nine pieces and scatter them across the world. Then he sealed away the body of the monster now depleted of chakra and hurled it up into the sky. It became the moon." Tobi said
"This tale is ridiculous. I mean, what human being could do something like that?" Darui asked
"That's because the sage of the six paths wasn't completely human! Kaguya was from another world." Temari thought
"As the ten tails jinchuriki, the sage had already advanced beyond the realm of humanity." Tobi said
"I understand you want to collect all of the nine tailed beast chakra, but what do you plan to do with it?" Tsunade asked
"Revive the ten tails of course and become the ten tails jinchuriki. I would then use its tremendous chakra to strengthen my visual prowess and launch a certain jutsu." Tobi said
"What certain jutsu?" Ōnoki asked
"A super genjutsu where I project my eye off the moon's surface. An infinite Tsukuyomi. All humans living on this earth will be placed under my genjutsu and as a result, by controlling each and everyone of them, I will unify the entire world. I will create a world without hatred or war. Everything will become one with me. Everything will be united. That is project TsuKi No Me." Tobi revealed
"You're insane! I'm not just handing the world over to you!" A said
"That kind of peace is just an illusion. Peace is only meaningful if it's achieved honestly." Gaara said
"So what exists inside such a genjutsu world? There's no hope, no dreams. It's just an escape." Mei said
"You want to unite the whole world, huh? Sounds like instead of uniting the world, you want to make the world yours and only yours." Ōnoki said
"Yet, with all of your talk, what have you five Kage accomplished? You of all people should know the truth by now. There is no hope. To hope is the equivalent to giving up and it is the biggest deception of them all. Now, turn over the remaining eight and nine tails. Cooperate with my plan or this is war." Tobi said
"War you say?" Gaara asked
"Eight tails? What do you mean? You captured Bee." A said
"The eight tails capture failed and he escaped. Now, there's a shinobi who's a perfect jinchuriki. There's no one quite like your younger brother." Tobi said and A started to go off, but he was ignored
"I won't give up Natsumi." Gaara said
"Neither will I." Mei said
"What about you, Raikage?" Ōnoki asked
"I'll never hand over my brother!" A exclaimed and Natsumi who was just listening to everything finally spoke up
"Yeah you prickly haired, orange mask wearing fuck. Fuck you." Natsumi said
"I may not have any strength, but I do have the power of the six tailed beasts that I've collected. You have no chance of winning." Tobi said
"We won't abandon hope." Gaara said
"Very well. I hereby declare war! The fourth great ninja war begins now!" Tobi said
"What? You're starting the fourth great ninja war now?! Are you mad?" Ōnoki asked
"The next time we meet will be in battle!" Tobi said and left in his typical fashion
"Alright, then. What should we do now?" Ōnoki asked
"Our nations must form an alliance. It's the only way to fight the power of six tailed beasts." Gaara said
"Lord Raikage, you oppose this idea." Mei said
"It seems my little brother is safe, but we cannot allow ourselves to be bullied by the akatsuki anymore. Form the alliance and we'll settle this for good." A said
"In order to stop Madara's project infinite TsuKi No Me, we must keep the eight and nine tails out of his clutches. I believe it is imperative to get them into hiding as fast as we can." Mei said
"That's absolutely right! If the ten tails were revived, we'd be done for." Chojuro said
"Yeah. I can't even imagine the power Madara had amassed with six tailed beasts and if he possesses jutsu that utilizes them, that would be a secret weapon." Ōnoki said
"I agree. Otherwise he wouldn't have been so bold." Akatsuchi said
"I believe the allied shinobi forces must blend to use the strength of the eight and nine tails. Don't you all agree with that?" Ōnoki asked
"No. Absolutely not. This is also a war to protect both of them. I think the reason that Madara is waging war with his six tailed beasts is because in his weakened state, it is too difficult for him to capture the eight and nine tails with the remaining akatsuki members. Even if it was possible the risks are too high. Also, he may be hoping to lure the two out with this war, for many reasons, using the tailed beasts in battle is not a wise strategy." Gaara said
"I agree. We must find a different plan." Mei said
"Yes. I also agree with the Kazekage." A said
"ABSOLUTELY THE FUCK NOT." Natsumi yelled
"Natsumi, calm down." Tsunade said
"Hell no! You honestly think I'm going to go into hiding just because the rest of you are a bunch of pussies?! No! I'm fighting! The akatsuki have taken too much from me. First my parents, then the old man and then pervy-sage. I am fighting and none of you will stop me." Natsumi said
"You have to understand…."
Natsumi cut Mei off
"No. You have to understand. This fight needs me and deep down you all know it. I didn't train for my entire life just to be cast aside and put away like some damsel in distress. I am a Kage level shinobi without the nine tails chakra, I can handle my own against anybody in this room." Natsumi said
"You'd be falling right into Madara's hands. Do you not understand that?" Mei asked
"Of course I understand it! Here's another reason why you should want me on the battlefield." Natsumi said and did a few hand signs
Wood style: wood clone jutsu
A perfect wood clone appeared from Natsumi's body, shocking everyone in the room, minus Tsunade who was just listening to Natsumi go on her rant.
"The wood kekkei genkai." Mei said in awe
"My word. I never thought I'd see this." Ōnoki said
"I'm fighting. I don't care who I have to go through, nobody is stopping me from ending the akatsuki once and for all." Natsumi said and Naruto appeared
"Wow. You guys certainly are up in arms." Naruto said
"Naruto! Tell them I'm fighting!" Natsumi said
"We all know you're fighting. Let's be honest, do any of you honestly think you can hold her back for long? It would take a Kage level shinobi to even have a chance to hold her back. She'll break out of wherever you trap her and head straight for the battlefield." Naruto said
"See! He agrees!" Natsumi said
"I don't think you understand. We're going up against Madara Uchiha. The power he possesses is immense." Ōnoki said
"He's not Madara Uchiha." Naruto said
"What?" A asked
"How do you know that?" Tsunade asked
"Because there's no similarity in our chakra signatures. Tsunade can attest to this. Chakra signatures are sort of like DNA amongst family members. Madara had a child in secret and that continued his bloodline. He would be considered my great great great grandfather if he was truly alive. This guy may not be Madara, but he is no joke." Naruto said
"If you're related to Madara, then you must know about the Uchiha stone tablet." Darui said
"Yeah I know about it. He's a fool for following that tablet. Whatever he thinks will happen won't." Naruto said
"Explain." Tsunade ordered
"The stone tablet has been tampered with quite a bit. Every time I would look at it growing up, the wording was different. One of my Mangekyo abilities wasn't on the tablet since it was unknown, but a few years later, it magically appeared on the tablet. Someone or something has been messing with that tablet and trust me, whoever this guy is, he's about to awaken something even worse than the ten tails." Naruto said
"Worse than the ten tails? What could be worse than that?" Mei asked
"You might as well tell them." Temari said
"The sage of the six paths mother is worse than the ten tails. She is the original user of chakra on earth and she's the one sealed inside of the moon. If this fake Madara actually gathers the chakra from all tailed beasts, we'll be in for the fight of our lives." Naruto said
"Wait. How do you know all of this?" Tsunade asked
"I discovered this by talking to some of the tailed beasts and my trip to the land of ancestors with Temari revealed some of this information. A, your brother is able to use the eight tails chakra to its full extent, right?" Naruto asked
"Yeah. What of it?" A asked
"Natsumi will be a vital piece to the war, so instead of just locking her away, have your brother train her to use the nine tails chakra properly. If she can properly use the nine tails chakra, that would be a huge advantage for us against this fake Madara and the other tailed beasts. That way we'll have three full users of tailed beast chakra. Gaara, your brother and Natsumi." Naruto said
"There are six tailed beasts we're up against." Ōnoki said
"If it really comes down to it, I'll take control of one or two tailed beasts if possible and use them to our advantage." Naruto said
"You can do that?" Mei asked
"Yeah. Anybody whose sharingan is powerful enough can control the tailed beasts. I just never wanted to do it." Naruto said
"This plan does seem to go in our favor a bit more." Ōnoki said
"Oh let her fight. She's the daughter of the yellow flash and Konoha's red hot habanero." Tsunade said
"Yeah. I can totally handle this." Natsumi said
"I don't know. Military strategy is a foreign concept to my little brother. I can never predict what he'll do. He might bring his own band of chaos to the battlefield." A said
"The same could be said for Natsumi." Gaara said and Temari chuckled
"I'll say." Termari added
"Hey!" Natsumi said
"Be that as it may, chaos is what we'll need. She has my vote." Tsunade said
"Very well. The eight and nine tails will be under protective custody until Natsumi gains control of the nine tails chakra. What do you say, Tsuchikage?" Mei asked and Ōnoki nodded
"We'll share our intel on killer be witn all you stone, mist, sand and leaf. Use it to put together tracking units and get them moving. Tell them to inform me the moment they locate the eight tails. My younger brother will only listen to me." A said
"Um, may I say something." Chojuro said
"What is it?" A asked
"Uh, right. Well, you see it's just…."
"SPIT IT OUT BOY." A yelled
"It's just, in the akatsuki there's another member of the seven ninja swordsmen of the mist, Kisame Hoshigaki. He has chakra equal to a jinchuriki and his sword, samehada or sharkskin, is the most terrible of all the blades. When his chakra and sword merge, he's human, but he's close to that of a jinchuriki. He's like a tailed beast without the tail or so my elders have told me. He's extraordinary. Please do not underestimate him." Chojuro said
"Yes. We already know about that, but anyway, are all of you sure about this plan?" Ōnoki asked
"Actually, I wonder about that. The world's first allied shinobi force is being formed here at the very moment and its strength is also unknown. Now there must be some risk in Madara using the seven tails beasts. Otherwise he wouldn't have come to this summit to try to negotiate. He must be facing unfavorable circumstances like us. Furthermore, we samurai shall also participate in this war. Is this more satisfying Tsuchikage?" Mifune asked and Ōnoki just grunted
"The question of who will lead the allied shinobi forces is still an issue. If you find any of us Kage suitable. Afterall, Mifune, you're the one who's disparaged every single one of us Kage." Ōnoki said and Mifune looked around
"I believe appointing lord A would be the wisest choice to make." Mifune said
"You found him unsuitable because he's ruled by his emotions and relies on brute strength." Ōnoki complained
"With the eight tails still alive, I believe the Raikage will stay calm. Also, he built a consensus with you earlier and was able to come up with a counter strategy. The Raikage is the only one who can control the eight tails. A tailed beast that's key to the upcoming conflict." Mifune explained
"Mizukage, Kazekage, hokage. Are you okay with that?" Ōnoki asked
"Oh for fucks sake will you just shut your old ass up? You just basically asked for him to pick a leader. News flash you old fuck, the Raikage is the only suitable person for that. Gaara and Lady mizukage are basically new, you're an old fart and lady Tsunade is best suited for organizing the medical corps for the alliance. By the way, stop referring to killer Bee as the eight tails. It's offensive. We have names. Fucking use them. When you refer to us like that, you're no better than the akatsuki." Natsumi said and Tsunade sighed
"Despite her vulgar language, she's right." Tsunade said
"I agree. I'll put my faith in the Raikage." Mei answered
"Yes. We shall leave it to you." Gaara said
"Very well. I'll lead the allied shinobi forces. Ōnoki, since you're the only one who's battled Madara Uchiha, we'll need any intel you can give us. Now cooperate." A said
"You still like taking down everyone and ordering them around do you?" Ōnoki asked
"You don't have to trust me if you don't want to, but at this rate the entire shinobi world is in danger of eradication. Now is the time to put aside our personal feelings and work together." A said
"Well, I suppose it is better than losing this war. If this shinobi world were to disappear, I wouldn't be able to quarrel with you anymore. Alright. I'll cooperate. The allied shinobi forces is now formed. First we must report this to our respective feudal lords. " Ōnoki said and Naruto just sighed
"It's like they didn't even remember I said this guy isn't Madara Uchiha." Naruto mumbled
"It's okay, but it still doesn't hurt to prepare just in case the real Madara shows up. I'll send word through Tatsu for anything we discover on our end, okay?" Temari asked
"Sure." Naruto said
"There's something else bothering you, isn't it?" Temari asked
"Yeah. You could say that." Naruto admitted
"Wanna talk about it?" Temari questioned and touched his shoulder
"Not yet. I have to talk to Tsunade first." Naruto said
"Naruto, we're leaving! Kiss your girlfriend goodbye and summon comet!" Natsumi said and Temari blushed
"I'll see you later." Temari said, as she kissed his cheek and left with Gaara
"Oh by the way. Tsuchikage." Naruto said
"What is it?" Ōnoki asked
"If you ever send a message to Konoha again threatening me and Natsumi, I'll make what my father did to you during the third shinobi war look like a walk in the park. This is your only warning." Naruto said
He looked at Ōnoki with his sharingan blazing who only gave a grunt in acknowledgement. It's not that he was scared, but he honestly didn't want to risk pissing off somebody who just admitted he's a direct descendent of Madara Uchiha who also has the blood of the yellow flash going through his body.
Danzo is dead, Tobi declared war and Natsumi was about to get more training. However, while this summit was going on, a certain snake summoner emerged from one of the many curse marks he placed on test subjects throughout the years.
